I will work closely with you to ensure that your material is free of errors, clear and concise. My usual method of working is to provide a second Word document of your material with 'track changes' enabled, so you can see the changes I have made as well as any comments or queries.

Listed below are some of the elements I can check for you, but I will agree an exact brief before I start working with you.I will also send you my Terms and Conditions.

spelling, punctuation and grammar

ensuring consistency of capitalisation, hyphenation, headings etc.

checking layout, contents page, illustrations, labelling styles etc.

bibliography / references: checking a consistent format is used and advising on any omissions

How much will it cost?

Each student's proficiency in written English is different. In order to provide you with a bespoke cost, I will ask for a sample of your work before quoting for the project.

How long will it take?

I will provide you with a professional proofread – I don't do rushed jobs. So, in order to answer that question honestly when you contact me for a quote, I need that sample I mentioned (preferably from the middle of the document). But that's not all the information I need...

What else should I send?

the date you will be sending me your work

the date that you would like it returned – REMEMBER that you will need to leave yourself sufficient time between the completed proofread and your submission date in order to review and accept/reject any changes that I may suggest
